The traditional accompaniments, I believe, are tiny Thai eggplants—mini-grenades of acridity, the size of a blueberry, spurting an intensely bitter juice when bitten. But the curry itself was smooth and velvety, laden with an appropriately immoderate amount of coconut milk...
...looking forward to that iconic Thai dessert, sticky rice with mango, but it was nowhere to be found. For those of you in the dark, this is a positively inspired pairing: gooey glutinous rice suffused with circulation-clogging salty (no, seriously) coconut milk, rounded off by that most sensual of tropical fruits, the musky mango. All they had were some dubiously Thai ice creams (green tea?) and Thai fruit (lychee, rambutan, longan). The ice creams were priced...

...began helping in the kitchen in 1988, after his mother won a Michelin star by shifting from Alsatian fare to a Mediterranean- inspired menu more typical of the south of France. Klein has since added flavors from farther afield, in dishes like coconut red-mullet soup spiced with Madras curry and sprinkled with aquatic mint. "I'll try an unusual mixture that someone from the classical tradition wouldn't think of," he says. But his foundation is the same. "You have to have the basics of traditional cookery."
